Boffins offer ‘lava’ thesis, poohpooh alien/Elvis theories

Space boffins believe they may be on the verge of discovering a vast, hidden network of tunnels beneath the surface of the Moon.

The tunnels aren’t thought to be the work of long-extinct (or perhaps still surviving) intelligent moon aliens, perhaps driven to adopt a subterranean existence by a notional disappearing atmosphere aeons ago. Nor is any involvement by Tibetans, Elvis or others seeking a secluded dwelling far from prying human eyes suspected.

O SANTO GRAAL

O Santo Graal é um dos mais antigos e enigmáticos mitos da humanidade. Sob uma análise superficial, é o cálice usado por Jesus Cristo no episódio da Última Ceia e que contém seu sangue, que havia sido recolhido no momento da crucificação.

O termo Graal, no francês arcaico, significa bandeja. Por outro lado, pode ter origem latina, no vocábulo Gradalis, que significa cálice. Já o termo Sangraal seria uma variação etimológica de Sangue Real.

Musical sounds created by longitudinal vibrations within the Sun’s atmosphere, have been recorded and accurately studied for the first time by experts at the University of Sheffield, shedding light on the Sun’s magnetic atmosphere.

Cientistas prevêem repetição de fenómeno “Biblico”

Earth’s magnetic field is fading. Today it is about 10 percent weaker than it was when German mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss started keeping tabs on it in 1845, scientists say.

If the trend continues, the field may collapse altogether and then reverse. Compasses would point south instead of north.

Not surprisingly, Hollywood has already seized on this new twist in the natural-disaster genre. Last year Tinseltown released The Core, a film in which the collapse of Earth’s magnetic field leads to massive electrical storms, blasts of solar radiation, and birds incapable of navigation.

Erupção vulcânica de 1783 mudou o mundo

How an Icelandic volcano helped spark the French Revolution

Profound effects of eight-month eruption in 1783 caused chaos from US to Egypt, say experts

Smoke and steam hangs over the volcano under the Eyjafjallajokull glacier in Iceland. Volcanic ash drifting across the Atlantic forced the cancellation of flights in Britain and disrupted air traffic across Europe.

Just over 200 years ago an Icelandic volcano erupted with catastrophic consequences for weather, agriculture and transport across the northern hemisphere – and helped trigger the French revolution.
